Title-lookalike matching collapses a multi-hat career into whichever single job-title box sounds closest, then searches only inside that box. /setup Section 9 now asks about the function before collecting search titles, search-queries.md says to organize priority categories by function with title variants under each, and 04-job-evaluation.md's Experience dimension matches on the function and nature of work performed (framework_version 1.2.2 -> 1.2.3). From discussion #327's field report and calibration example.

Search Queries for Job Scraper
Installed portal CLIs (primary for /scrape)
/scrape discovers every portal skill under .agents/skills/*/SKILL.md and runs its CLI first. Shipped country-agnostic CLIs include linkedin-search and freehire-search; Danish demos and any skill you add with /add-portal are included the same way. You do not need a matching site: line below for those CLIs to run.
The site: query templates in this file are the WebSearch fallback — for portals without a CLI, company career pages, or when a CLI fails.
Language scope: write every query category in every language listed in your CLAUDE.md Languages table (typically 1-2, sometimes more). A posting requiring a language you have not declared, as a job condition, is excluded before scoring; a posting requiring a higher level than you declared in a language you do work in is flagged for your own judgment, not excluded — see 04-job-evaluation.md's Language Gate, the single source of truth for this rule. Translate each category's keywords rather than machine-translating word-for-word (e.g. "Frontend Developer" -> "Desarrollador Frontend", not a literal word-for-word translation) if you work in more than one language.
Search Sites
Primary (your market's job boards - scaffold one with /add-portal):
- [YOUR_JOB_BOARD] - your market's largest general job board
- linkedin.com/jobs - LinkedIn job listings (filter: [YOUR_COUNTRY] / [YOUR_CITY]); also covered by
linkedin-searchCLI - [YOUR_INDUSTRY_JOB_BOARD] - a niche/industry board for your field (optional)
- [YOUR_ADDITIONAL_JOB_BOARD] - another major board for your market (optional)
Secondary (company career pages via Google):
- Direct Google searches with
site:filters for known target companies
Query Categories
Queries are grouped by priority. Write each category in every language from your Languages table (see Language scope above). Combine each query with your location terms (e.g. your city, region, or metro area) where the site supports it.
Organize by function, not job title. The same underlying work carries different titles across companies and markets (a "Data Scientist" role at one employer may be posted as "Insights Analyst" or "Data Consultant" at another). Name each priority category after the function it covers, and list several plausible job titles as query variants within that category rather than betting an entire priority tier on one exact title string.
Priority 1: [YOUR_PRIMARY_ROLE_TYPE]
These match your strongest and most desired career direction.
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] "[YOUR_PRIMARY_JOB_TITLE_1]" [YOUR_CITY]
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] "[YOUR_PRIMARY_JOB_TITLE_2]" [YOUR_CITY]
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] "[YOUR_KEY_SKILL]" [YOUR_CITY]
site:linkedin.com/jobs "[YOUR_PRIMARY_JOB_TITLE_1]" [YOUR_COUNTRY]
Priority 2: [YOUR_DOMAIN_EXPERTISE]
These match your domain expertise.
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] [YOUR_DOMAIN_KEYWORD_1] [YOUR_CITY] OR [YOUR_REGION]
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] [YOUR_DOMAIN_KEYWORD_2] [YOUR_COUNTRY]
site:linkedin.com/jobs [YOUR_DOMAIN_KEYWORD_1] [YOUR_CITY] [YOUR_COUNTRY]
Priority 3: [YOUR_ADJACENT_ROLE_TYPE]
Adjacent roles you could pivot into.
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] "[YOUR_ADJACENT_TITLE_1]" [YOUR_KEY_SKILL] [YOUR_CITY]
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] "[YOUR_ADJACENT_TITLE_2]" [YOUR_KEY_SKILL] [YOUR_CITY]
Priority 4: Broader Technical / Consulting
Wider net for general technical roles.
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] [YOUR_KEY_SKILL] developer [YOUR_CITY]
site:linkedin.com/jobs "[YOUR_KEY_SKILL] developer" [YOUR_CITY]
site:[YOUR_JOB_BOARD] "technical consultant" [YOUR_DOMAIN] [YOUR_CITY]
Location Filter
When evaluating results, verify the job location is within reasonable commute distance from your home. Define acceptable areas:
- [YOUR_CITY] and surrounding areas
- [ACCEPTABLE_AREA_1]
- [ACCEPTABLE_AREA_2]
- [BORDERLINE_AREA] (borderline - ~X min by transit)
- [TOO_FAR_AREA] (too far)
Language Filter
Your working languages and levels are in CLAUDE.md's Languages table. When filtering scraped results, apply 04-job-evaluation.md's Language Gate: a posting requiring a language you haven't declared at all is excluded; a posting requiring a higher level than you declared in a language you do work in is not excluded, flag it clearly instead (see job-scraper/SKILL.md's Step 3 "Quick Fit Assessment" for how the flag surfaces in /scrape output). Postings simply written in a language you don't work in, that don't require it on the job, are fine.
Date Filter
Only include jobs posted within the last 14 days, or with an application deadline that has not yet passed. If a posting date cannot be determined, include it but flag as "date unknown".
Adapting Queries
If the user specifies a focus area, select queries from the matching category and also generate 2-3 custom queries for that focus. For example:
- "/scrape [focus_area]" -> relevant category queries + custom focus-specific queries
